On the Qinhuai River, in a green building called Xiaoyao Pavilion.

Zhen Yingli and Jia Lian, each holding a popular girl, chatted while drinking flower wine.

"Brother Lian, you went to Suzhou this time Brother Cong, why didn't you go to Suzhou with you?"

Jia Lian picked up the wine glass, touched it with Zhen Yingli, drank it all, and then smiled:

"Brother Cong went to Suzhou this time, just to find someone, I didn't stay there for a long time, I didn't have anything to do when I went there, the time was wasted on the road, it was better to stay here and be chic."

Zhen Yingli smiled when he heard this, Jia Lian, this guy is still as lustful as ever, lingering among the flowers every day, and he doesn't know how to get tired.

"This time in Jinling, Brother Cong surprised me, I have lived so big, it is the first time I have seen such a vigorous person, with Brother Cong here, Brother Lian can go sideways, no one dares to provoke you again.

People like Brother Cong, how did your Jia family cultivate them, it is really enviable and jealous. ”

Jia Lian touched the woman beside him, touched it twice, and said with a smile:

"Brother Cong is still very good, good to his family, generous, and very interesting to me, who is a brother, I have no time to accompany me in Yangzhou, so I directly gave me 10,000 taels of silver tickets, and let me go out to have fun by myself.

I didn't spend much time with him before, but since he was nine years old, he moved to Zhuangzi, where he practiced martial arts and trained guards, and only went home during the New Year's holidays to greet the elders.

At the age of twelve, he went to the border town of Liaodong, and when he left, his family didn't know, until the war report came from the front line, and the family didn't know the news, and he stayed in Liaodong for three years, until Uncle Jia Jing was gone this year, and Brother Cong came back from Liaodong.

He is a person who generally does not take the initiative to provoke others, but if anyone provokes him, it will definitely not end well, he starts cleanly and mercilessly, and I also came out with him, so I saw his ruthlessness.

Just like Jinling this time, Brother Cong didn't plan to do it, thinking about bringing the family roll here to play for a few days, and then went back, who knew that the Hanako Gang was blind and actually wanted to kidnap my two sisters, which completely annoyed him. ”

Zhen Yingli saw Jia Cong's ruthlessness, and from being unimpressed before, he also became quite attached to him.

A powerful kid is still working so hard and willing to endure hardships and stand hard work, no wonder there is such an achievement.

"Although the movement is a bit big, but the effect is very good, the people said it, and they didn't say that Brother Cong is the master of the blue sky."

Jia Lian said: "Brother Cong is good at everything, he just doesn't like to fool around, this time he came to Jinling as an exception, it is estimated that it is also to give face to Second Brother Zhen, it is not easy to refuse, but I have never heard that he has been to Qinglou in the capital." ”

Zhen Yingli said: "Look at Brother Cong's style, he is no stranger to these doorways, and he has suppressed his brother." ”

Jia Lian smiled and said, "Don't talk about him, let's drink." ”

The two drank and chatted, and after they were full of wine and food, they each hugged the beauty in their arms to rest.

"Ah" A frightened scream sounded in the silent dawn, resounding on the banks of the Qinhuai River, waking up all the people in Xiaoyao Pavilion.

"What's going on? Still don't let people sleep? ”

"Who the hell is this? Yelling and trying to scare people to death? ”

"Oh no, it's dead, Second Master Zhen is dead, this time it's a big disaster."

"What? Second Master Zhen is dead? How is this possible, what the hell is going on? ”

Jia Lian was also startled when he heard the sound outside, Zhen Yingli died?

How is this possible? Quickly got up and ran out to inquire.

Jia Lian came to the next room, only to see that there were already many people inside, and when he came closer, he saw that Zhen Yingli was lying on the bed, already dead.

He pulled the old bustard next to him and asked, "What the hell is going on?" How could Second Brother Zhen have an accident? ”

The old bustard said with a bitter face: "Second Master Jia, I don't know, I also came here when I heard the shout, and it's already like this when I came over, I have already sent someone to inform Uncle Zhen." ”

"Little Peach, aren't you with Second Brother Zhen? What the hell is going on? ”

Xiao Taohong said: "Second Master Jia, we were fine when we slept, when I got up to relieve myself, I wanted to call Second Master Zhen together, and when I pushed it and saw that he didn't respond, I took the lamp and shone it, and it was like this now, which scared me and screamed." ”

Jia Lian is also a little blind, how can this be? How could this happen?

After another period of time, Zhen Yingjia hurried over with people.

Seeing Zhen Yingli lying there, Zhen Yingjia was completely angry.

"Who the hell did this? Old bustard, if you don't give me an explanation, I will smash your Xiaoyao Pavilion today, and you won't do it in the future. ”

The old bustard said: "Uncle Zhen, we don't know the reason, let's check the cause of death first." ”

Zhen Yingjia saw that Jia Lian was also there, and asked, "Brother Lian, are you here too?" Do you know what's going on? ”

Jia Lian smiled bitterly: "Brother Zhen, I went out to play with Second Brother Zhen at night, we rested after eating and drinking, I woke up when I heard the shouting, it was already like this when I came over, and I don't know what the reason is." ”

The people brought by Zhen Yingjia stepped forward to inspect the corpse, inspected the whole body, and found a bite mark.

"Uncle, the second master was poisoned to death, and there is a bite mark on his body, which should be bitten by a poisonous snake."

Zhen Yingjia frowned when he heard this.

"You mean to say that my second brother was bitten to death by a poisonous snake? Can you be sure? ”

"Uncle, it shouldn't be wrong, but I also wonder, how can there be poisonous snakes here?"

Zhen Yingjia found the noon work of the government again, and checked the following, it was indeed bitten to death by a poisonous snake.

However, after searching for a long time, I did not find the shadow of the poisonous snake.

Zhen Yingjia was furious, and directly led people to smash Xiaoyao Pavilion and said cruel words.

"If you don't give an explanation, don't want to mix in Jinling."

I asked the government to investigate for several days, but I found nothing, no clues, and no suspicious people, so I had to stop it in the end.

Although, Zhen Yingjia didn't believe that there was such a coincidence, but the poisonous snake bit his brother, but after checking and checking, he didn't find anything suspicious.

only found traces of a poisonous snake crawling, and everyone unanimously judged that it was bitten by a poisonous snake and died of poison.

Zhen Yingjia had no choice, so he could only pinch his nose and admit it.

Maybe it's really such a coincidence, it's unlucky to catch up with the second brother, it seems that this is also fate.

After Jia Lian attended Zhen Yingli's funeral, he didn't dare to stay in Jinling for a long time, so he returned to Yangzhou by boat.

······

Jia Cong and Lin Daiyu held hands, bickering while walking leisurely and slowly.

So he walked all the way back to the city and back to his lodgings.

After today's trip, the relationship between the two has gone further, and they have gotten along more harmoniously, which is a big gain for Jia Cong.

"Brother, Sister Lin, you're back."

Xichun saw the two coming back and greeted them with a smile.

Jia Cong smiled: "Well, I'm back, how is it, are you still used to it here?" ”

Xichun said: "It's good, there's nothing unaccustomed, it's much more stable than being on a boat." ”

Jia Cong smiled, although he deliberately got a big boat, the water of the canal is also stable, but when it is driven, it is still inevitable that it will shake a little, and it is indeed not as stable as it is on the ground.

"You guys have a good rest first, and then Xiangling and I will go to his mother tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow I will take you out for a walk and play around."

Xichun nodded and said, "Got it, brother." ”

After dinner, we talked together, and then went back to rest.

Jia Cong returned to his room and saw that only Xiangling was sitting alone in front of the bed waiting for him, Mandarin ducks, attackers, and Qingwen were not there.

I wondered a little in my heart, these three girls have been pestering themselves every day recently, as if they had discussed it, for fear that they would bring women back from outside.

What's the matter today, none of them are here, are they all here to the eldest aunt?

Xiangling stood up, came to Jia Cong's side, and helped him untie his coat and put it on the hanger.

"Master, let me serve you tonight."

Jia Cong nodded, Xiangling often slept with her, but this girl was shy and didn't eat her.

"Well, Xiangling, you haven't been with me for a long time, why aren't any of the three of them here, can't you eat a bad stomach?"

Xiangling helped Jia Cong to the bed, took off her clothes, and got into the bed.

Giggled and said: "Master, they didn't have a bad stomach, they are all fine, I want to accompany Ye tonight, talk to Ye, they are all resting outside." ”

When Jia Cong heard this, he knew a little in his heart.

They are emptying Xiangling, the four of them, Xiangling has not been eaten by themselves, it seems that they all have some ideas.

Jia Cong didn't want to eat Xiangling now, anyway, he wasn't very old.

Besides, Mandarin Duck, Qingwen, and the three of them have just received two months, and several people have tasted it for the first time, and they are in the time when they are mixing oil in honey and like glue, and they are obsessed with themselves.

and Ruyan, who has just been harvested for less than a month, is even more eager to wear it.

I can only secretly take time to run to have a tryst with her.

Since he knew that he and Jia Lian went to the Qinhuai River, Mandarin Duck, Raider, Qingwen, and the three of them went into battle together, using all their efforts to leave themselves in the house.

During this time, Jia Cong's small life was happy and happy.

It's not bad to have a free time one day, talk to Xiangling, and untie her. Since coming to Suzhou, this girl looks preoccupied.

Her grandfather's situation in Fengsu's house, and her mother's condition, had already been told to her in detail.

It seems that Xiangling is still a little nervous in her heart, and she doesn't know what she is worried about?

turned sideways, hugged Xiangling into his arms, and said softly: "Xiangling, are you ready, I will take you to see your mother tomorrow, so that your mother and daughter can meet and the family will be reunited." ”

Xiangling arched into Jia Cong's arms, and her little face rubbed against Jia Cong's face.

"Master, I don't know why, when I arrived in Suzhou, my heart was even more bottomless, I was both a little expectant and a little afraid, I couldn't settle down in my heart, and I was much more stable by my side."

Jia Cong smiled and said: "This may be what those literati call homesickness, after all, you were too young when you were taken away, and more than ten years have passed since this moment, and I don't have much impression of my family."

It's suddenly about to meet them, I don't know how to deal with it, but it's understandable, you don't have to think too much, everything goes according to your heart, just go with the flow. ”

Xiangling nodded and said: "Well, I listen to the master, I'm not afraid of anything else, I'm just afraid that after I recognize them, they won't let me follow the master, I don't want to leave the master, the master is the best person for me in this world, I want to follow the master for a lifetime."

Master, you want me, otherwise I won't worry. ”

Facing Xiangling's confession, Jia Cong was very happy.

Finally, I didn't hurt this girl in vain, it's all at this time, and I've been thinking about myself.

When she first followed her, this girl was always cautious, for fear that she would be upset and beaten like in the hands of human traffickers.

Later, I saw that I was really good to her, so I slowly let go of my vigilance and integrated into this big family.

With the experience of those years in the hands of human traffickers, Xiangling cherishes her current life even more.

With the support of Jia Cong, he began to recognize words, learn poetry, and arm his brain.

is even more well-behaved and sensible, which makes people feel distressed and pitiful.

looks six or seven points similar to Qin Keqing, and in terms of appearance, he is no worse than Qingwen.

Qin Keqing is the first beauty in the Red Mansion, she is both beautiful and beautiful, slightly stronger than Baochai and Daiyu, charming and charming, a romantic bird, and a little goblin who is fascinated by death.

It's not that Baochai and Daiyu are not as good as Qin Keqing, when the two first entered Jiafu, they were young and their bodies had not yet grown up, and compared with Qin Keqing, who was already a mature beauty, they were naturally worse.

Now Xue Baochai is already a big girl, gentle and virtuous, the country is beautiful and fragrant, and there is a little bit of Yang Guifei's fatness.

Although he can't close the moon and be ashamed, he is no worse than Qin Keqing at all.

Although Lin Daiyu is still a few years younger, she has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and her body has developed earlier than the average person, and she has grown into a slim and beautiful beauty, but she still has a little childishness.

Xiangling and Qin Keqing are six or seven points similar, how bad can they be?

However, Xiangling is well-behaved and obedient, a little cute, and has no charm on Qin Keqing's body at all, she has been studying hard in the past few years, but she has an extra bookish atmosphere.

Coupled with the beautiful mole between the eyebrows, it added a bit of beauty to her.

Looking at the little beauty who was close to Chi Qi and had her face against her face, it was fake to say that she was not tempted, the little cabbage that had been raised for so many years couldn't be arched by others, right?

Jia Cong asked himself if he was not generous to that extent.

"Xiangling, I like it very much, but have you really thought about it? You're not very old, and you can be carefree and happy for a few years. ”

Xiangling said: "Master, Qingwen is not as old as me, I've been thinking about it for a long time, I don't want to wait any longer, if I become my wife, they can't keep me." ”

As soon as the words fell, his hands climbed up Jia Cong's neck, and the cherry mouth kissed him directly.

Xiangling, who used to like to be shy, also let go of her courage today, she must have been taught bad by those three people.

Feeling Xiangling's enthusiasm, how could Jia Cong be indifferent, then do it······
